Labor Guide for Chainsaws

[94BULLITT]

Is there a labor guide for saws like there is for cars?

Mediacat stihl software may have it in the program

It does, I just discovered this about a month back. It's pretty handy.

Whereabouts is this labor guide in the program?

Yes there is, it's called "Chain Saw Flat Rate Pricing Guide" by INTERTEC Publishing.

I found it in Part Smart, but so far just for the MS362.

I just have a set price for most jobs I do, but I'd like to have a guide to check out too.

It's in the general section I believe. The far right icon to click on opposite of the gasoline chainsaws.

There is a labor guide for all of their equipment.

I have a set carb rebuild price and a set top end replacement price. These prices were set by a guy I do work for, and I am happy with it. The water gets really muddy after that... I would like a set price for having to split a case and replace bearings and such mess as that. A price guide per saw would be too much to have to filter through since I will work on pretty much anything that comes in the door. Including Mini Macs

Just use what works for you. I get a certain price for a rebuild, plus parts. Some saws I do better on than others. On many jobs, I just go by time involved, and break that into half hours.

I understand. I just want to be fair for all parties involved.

And what about 441s

 

[jmssaws]

And what about 441s

Them and a 661 can all be the same hourly rate.
The 362 is a heavy cumbersome stinker.
441 and 661 at least cut according to there size

Please do

 

[dall]

Please do

i think youd send the parts to @junkman to have some fun with

 

[junkman]

And i always thought the 362 was awesome ,

 

[Mark71gtx]

I worked on a 441 for a friend. Once I pulled the top cover off, I was like "oh hell no..." The 044 is much more mechanic friendly in my opinion...

I think the flat rate is mainly a guide for warranty work.
